Like it…

I saw Claire’s post on the kway teow th’ng (flat rice noodle soup) that she had in Penang and that triggered a craving in me for that. I have not been to Penang for quite some time and I have not had that for quite a while…and she had me drooling over all the other things that she had as well in her later post. Sigh!!! I wonder when I will get to go over to the island again… Sobssss!!!!!

Well, in the meantime, I headed back to this coffee shop as I remembered I had seen a photograph of mee daging or meat/pork noodles at a stall there and it looked like something in clear soup…like kway teow th’ng and this was what I had (RM4.50)…

I never liked those frozen pork balls…

…and I still don’t. I did see them in the photograph and I should have told the lady not to include those but it just slipped my mind. Next time, I would do just that and asked for a bit more minced meat instead. My daughter loves those though and I think she would enjoy eating these noodles.

However, it turned out that they used mihun (rice vermicelli) instead of yellow noodles or the like…

…and they did not seem to sell kway teow in any form so I didn’t think I could ask them to substitute the mihun with that instead.

Nevertheless, it tasted great and I did enjoy it a lot especially with the sourish chili dip that they gave to eat it with. I did wish they had a piece or two of liver in it though. They could have that instead of the frozen meat balls and I certainly would not mind paying a bit more for that. Yum! Yum!
